# Trees - General, 31 Butts Valley Rd, Canterbury, Christchurch 8022, New Zealand

Christchurch · filed 27 March 2026 · report 7986023
https://www.chch.live/report/7986023

> These low hanging branches (gum & oak trees) are obscuring drivers vision when turning left on Butts Valley road toward Horotane valley Rd. I have had near collisions with drivers turning right toward numbers 21/23 butts valley due to these branches. They also whack my windshield and scrape along the top of my truck when I drive down the road. Some of the branches of the oak trees overhanging the road are clearly dead and will fall soon anyway.
